#Sheri s tepper true game ebook series#
Oh, hello end-of-trilogy problems! The third book in the series includes a lot of world-building notes - lists of types of gamesmen, unusual fauna, more extensive maps. Apparently, there are also other books set in the same universe, I might give these a try at some point. the revelations about “the Great Plan” and the ending felt rushed and not really thought through = unsatisfying. all the bad guys were relatively easy to deal with I did enjoy Wizard’s Eleven quite a lot - excellent writing, wonderful characters (see above), the world was still interesting, Peter did grow up a bit, and it was a nice blend of fantasy and sci-fi. I a I am so glad Jininan was in this book! I don’t think I would have liked it as much otherwise. But: - the main villain was a caricature - all the bad guys were relatively easy to deal with - the revelations about “the Great Plan” and the ending felt rushed and not really thought through = unsatisfying. I am so glad Jininan was in this book! I don’t think I would have liked it as much otherwise. I had tears in my eyes as they and it was all marvelous.more

My favourite two characters of the series (Jinian and Queynt) only come along in Wizard's Eleven, and the eleven themselves truly come to life here even though we've been gathering glimpses of them all along. The first book is sparsely drawn and the characters are flat on the page, and it's all too easy to put it down there but by the start of this book, I was entirely caught up in unraveling the truth along with Peter. I wish this had been published today, because it would have been in one volume-which is really how these need to be read. But wow! It all comes to fruition in this volume and I feel like I've just watched her writing develop in spades over the course of the short trilogy. The True Game is weird, yes, and the early books (#1-2) certainly lack the strength of Tepper's later writing. I thought this little trilogy by Sheri S.

But wow! It a I have this fascination for the weird early books written by authors who would later develop their own styles/themes and move away from their freshman efforts-books that probably wouldn't have seen the light in today's publishing environment, but that have their own strange magic.
